Quite so.  We don't have to change the default, but offer these
as alternatives moves XEmacs closer to the point where we live up
to Jens' mimetic polyalloy XEmacs logo. :)

I like them too, else I would not have shamelessly stolen from
them to produce VM's icons.  The reason not to add color to the
current icons is the same gripe some have about the new glitzy
icons; too many colors.  Also, XEmacs will start up more slowly
because instantiating images with lots of colors takes longer.
